MarchingOrder is a profitable and growing edtech startup that serves as the behind-the-scenes software powering graduation ceremonies across most universities and colleges in the US.
Think about your own graduation - everything from registration, ticketing, check in & automated name reading - we’ve been doing that for over 20 years for our customers who are some of the largest and most prestigious universities in the world like UC Berkeley, UCLA, University of Texas, Texas A&M, Stanford, Arizona State, USC, NYU, UPenn, and hundreds more.
MarchingOrder is a 100% remote company (and has been wayyy before COVID) and as such, we build in the open. Transparency is the underpinning of our culture and how we act as employees and how we serve our customers.
